Post Apocalypse/Zombie Slaying Family!!! (PIC-HEAVY)

[ChainCrafts]

My wife only asked for one thing for her birthday this year. She wanted to do a Post-Apocalypse/Zombie Slaying family photo shoot! To that end, I created armor for all of us.

(all photos by Bakan Photography: http://www.bakanphotography.com/)

There's a bunch of pieces here, so rather than going through one-by-one, here's a list of the materials used to make the costumes:


- Hubcaps
- Railroad crossing sign
- Soda tabs
- Strips of stainless steel
- Various bits of sports equipment
- Jump rings
- Aluminum from duct parts

And here are some pics of our adventures!


She's gonna get 'im


Do you hear that?


CRAP!!! ZOMBIE!!!!!


!VANQUISHED!


Even bears need armor


In the chaos, they turned against each other

You know what they say.... The family that slays together, stays together.

Special thanks to the super talented Langley West for coming along to play Zombie for us!

That is so very epic, I don't even know what else to say. The idea is amazing, the photos extraordinary, and the armors you created are just incredible superb job and hats off to you, sir!

What a great idea.  I have a zombie addiction as well.  I love that your little girl has a bear on her armor.

This is EPIC! I laughed out loud so many times while scrolling through! I think my favourite piece of armour is the helmet with a furnace-grate visor
